Abstract:
As a typical environmental endocrine disruptor, bisphenol analogues (BPs) can enter the marine environment through long-distance atmospheric transport, rainfall, and surface runoff. They are currently widely present in seawater, sediments, and organisms, and undergo biomagnification along the food chain from lower to higher trophic levels. The continuous global production and application of BPs will have serious impacts on the growth, survival, and reproduction of marine organisms. This paper summarizes the sources of BPs in the marine environment, reviews the distribution characteristics of marine BPs, analyzes the toxic effects of BPs on organisms and their toxic mechanisms, and anticipates future research directions on the environmental effects of marine BPs, aiming to provide important references for scientifically assessing the ecological risks and harmful effects of BPs in marine.
